I totally agree with you. I recently read an article about it too and my reaction was “How is it that birth certificates are faked and that is legal?!” I now understand the context in which that happened (decades ago society was different). However, I think these records should be opened up. The birth mothers’ rights shouldn’t trump adopted people’s rights.

“Mi vida está hecha de todas las vidas.” (My life is made up of all lives.)-Pablo Neruda I love this quote by Neruda because it reminds us that we are a product of all the lives that came before us and continue to exist beyond our own existence. It relates to the inter-connectedness of all human life.
